Irene on Feb 22, 2016There is a product called Stiffy that I use for stiffening crocheted ornament. I have also seen watered down white glue. Sugar water stopped being popular due to insects.Helpful Reply

Maria on Feb 22, 2016The product is Stiffy. You can buy it at any craft store. Wet your lace or yarn with it, then wrap it around a blown up balloon. Let it dry for a day or two then pop the balloon and you will have your ornament. I make Easter baskets like this. I leave an oval shape in the front of the balloon for the opening. I place something heavy such as a bag of pebbles on the bottom of the basket and cover it with Easter grass.Helpful Reply

Holly Simpson on Feb 23, 2016Any white glue and water will work too. I made easter baskets for my kids one year but wrapping huge balloons and then cutting out an oval on one side when dry. Filled it with grass and goodies.Helpful Reply
